Gunning sight
Escape path
Conventional cut
First clear the tree base and work area
from interfering limbs and brush and
clean its lower portion with an ax.
C = felling notch - determines the
direction of the fall
For a conventional cut:
Then, establish two paths of escape (B)
and remove all obstacles. These paths
should be generally opposite to the
planned direction of the fall of the tree
(A) and about at a 45° angle. Place all
tools and equipment a safe distance
away from the tree, but not on the
escape paths.
:
Properly place felling notch
perpendicular to the line of fall,
close to the ground.
When making the felling notch, use the
gunning sight on the shroud and housing
to check the desired direction of fall:
:
Cut down at approx. 45-degree
angle to a depth of about 1/5 to 1/4
of the trunk diameter.
Position the saw so that the gunning
sight points exactly in the direction you
want the tree to fall.
:
:
Make second cut horizontal.
Remove resulting 45-degree piece.
